1. Go to View -> Command Palette or press Ctrl+Shift+P
2. Then enter Install Extension

Usage

Syntax Highlighting

It just works. Open your .env files in VSCode, and they will now be syntax highlighted.

---

Auto-cloaking

It just works. Open your .env files in VSCode, and they will be auto-cloaked. Click the 'Toggle auto-cloaking' link at the top of your .env file to toggle it off. Feel safer sharing your screen!

Multiple .env file types supported.

• .env
• .env.example
• .env.development
• .env.staging
• .env.production
• .env.vault
• .env.me
• .env.*
• .flaskenv

---

Auto-completion

Start typing process.env. (or language specific env statement) and your cursor will be populated with auto-completion options directly from your .env file. Cool!

Multiple languages supported.

• Ruby
• Python
• PHP
• Go
• Java
• C#
• Rust

---

In-code secret peeking

Hover your mouse over a process.env.SECRET_KEY or a ENV["SECRET_KEY"], and you will be able to peek at its value without having to open your .env file. Convenient!
